What's New

Version History

4.5.7

Mar 17, 2018

• Revising the Help & Support section

4.5.6

Mar 7, 2018

• Made Dropbox sync more robust.

4.5.5

Mar 2, 2018

Dropbox sync is now more robust, and it can recover from network errors gracefully.

If you use Dropbox sync, please go into the Happy Scale app settings and verify that Dropbox sync is still turned on. If it's not on, turn it back on. Previous versions of the app would disable sync when they encountered errors that can now be handled gracefully.

4.5.4

Nov 6, 2017

Minor bug fixes.

4.5.3

Oct 26, 2017

Fixing a few minor layout fixes.

4.5.2

Oct 19, 2017

Dropbox Sync users: This is an important update that addresses backing up and syncing to Dropbox.

After updating, the app will guide you through a one-time refresh of your Dropbox sync data.

4.5.1

May 24, 2017

4.5.1: Fixed the appearance of text for users who use stones

4.5

May 22, 2017

Howdy! This is a mandatory update for users who sync to Dropbox. Dropbox sync will not work after June 28th unless you install this update.

There's some cool stuff, too:

1. WEIGHT LOSS PROGRESS CARD ENHANCEMENTNow you can tap on the Weight Loss Progress card, and you can scrub your thumb left and right on the screen to look into the past & the future! If you're a deluxe user, you can quickly browse the dates you'll hit future weights by swiping right. Try it out!

3. TAP-TO-RELEASE ANIMATIONSYou know how sometimes stuff's animating before you're ready, and you need to scroll down quickly to see it? Well now, animations are paused until you tap on the card, and then they are unleashed. That way you can see what changed based on your new weigh ins. :-)

4. A BUNCH OF NEW COLOR THEMESCheck them out in the Settings! I hope there's something for everyone now!

5. NEW OPTION: TWO DECIMAL PLACESNow you can show two decimal places all over the app. It's an option in Settings > Miscellaneous settings.

Besides these things, there's lots of polish and improvement sprinkled throughout the app.

I'd love it if you could leave a review or update a previous review (reviews reset with every release).

4.4.2

Aug 15, 2016

Hi! This is a bug fix release.

* I've been tracking down an issue where HealthKit sync is unreliable, and I think I finally figured it out. If you're still having HealthKit sync issues, please contact me.

* Your earliest report card will now show the amount of weight lost in the period. Previously, the first card would not include a note about how much weight was lost because there was no previous card to compare to.

* A few rare crash fixes

* (For users who just started only) If you are in the first few days of using the app, you may see your moving average values shift. In the first few days, I used to initialize your moving average inertia with the rate you committed to losing. This was weird because you could commit to losing 1 pound a week, and on day 2 it would say your moving average went down even if you recorded the same weight as day 1. To fix it, I now use a different averaging method in the first few days that's based solely on your weigh-ins.

I'd love it if you could leave a review or update a previous review (they reset with every release).

4.4.1

Jul 28, 2016

Versions 4.4 & 4.4.1:

Hi! A few milestone enhancements in this release.

· ALIGNED MILESTONES ·Now you can have milestones that align to nice round numbers, like 190, 180, 170, etc. Sound good? Turn it on by tapping the gear in the upper-right of the Progress card on the Summary tab.

· OVERALL PROGRESS PERCENTAGE ·Milestones are nice, but do you wish you could see how far along you are in achieving your overall goal? Tap the gear in the upper-right of the Progress card on the Summary tab to turn it on.

· COMPLETE MILESTONE LISTING ·You can now tap the gear on the Weight Loss Progress card, and then "How to split up my goal" to see a listing of all your milestones.

I hope you’ve been kicking butt with your milestones!

· Lost more than 100? Now you still see the decimal point for how much you've lost

· Improved performance to keep your battery life going strong

· Fixed some infrequent but pesky little bugs that had previously puzzled me for ages

· Robot-ized some behind-the-scenes processes so I can work more efficiently in the future.

* Ability to track progress using "latest weight"* Single-entry/multi-entry mode for add weight screen * No two-tap Add/Done needed to log a daily entry anymore * Tap Multi-Entry at the top any time you need to log multiple days at once* Improved the guided experience when first installing to help people who are setting up sync.* Many other minor improvements

4.0.2

Dec 22, 2015

4.0.2: Fixed a crash on older versions of iOS

4.0.1: Hi everyone! Happy holidays!

I got lots of feedback on the 4.0 release, and I read every word! If you loved the update, awesome, thanks for letting me know! But not everyone loved it. I’ve since come to realize how many of the little things that I thought wouldn’t be missed were actually beloved.

So it’s time to start making things right!

My top priority with the next couple of releases is to address the feedback from the 4.0 release. I wanted to respond quickly, so I only addressed a few of the top requests in this release. Consider this a first installment in a series of improvement updates.

In this update:

1. The old scrollable chart is back

You can now click on the “fullscreen” button (two arrows pointing to corners) on the upper-left of the chart card to open a fullscreen version of the old familiar scrollable chart. Darker lines for week and month delineations, month labels and scrolling, everything you liked about the old chart is back. Works in both portrait and landscape.

2. Increased contrast/legibility

Sorry to everyone who had a hard time reading the text in the previous release! The colors are now bolder, and the text is now darker. I also changed the text thickness and sizes to help make them easier to read.

That’s it for now, but I have plans to address some other feedback in future releases. The items I have firm plans to address are (1) bringing back the red-to-green colorful milestones and (2) offering different color themes, including a “classic” color theme that looks like the old version did. Hang tight, I’m working hard on these improvements and hope to get them to you soon!

If the 4.0 update disrupted your weight loss routine: I’m sorry. I know a lot of people count on this app as part of their routines, and as such I take my responsibility as the developer of this app very seriously. I just didn’t anticipate how disruptive the redesign would be for some users. I will make things better with time!

If you have any feedback, I’d love to hear from you! App reviews, Facebook, Twitter and email (support@happyscale.com) are all great. Please bear in mind that I have no way to respond to app reviews, so I prefer one of the other three for any feedback that might benefit from a back-and-forth dialog.

Dec 9, 2015

Big update! I teamed up with one of the world's best mobile designers, Camden Asay, to completely redesign the app from head to toe. Now Happy Scale is looking all clean and svelte, just like you are!

Also, some new features:

* Show any combination of your latest entry, moving average or 10-day-low at the top of your summary * Re-imagined weight loss progress section to help you better visualize your place in your journey. * You can now change the range of the weight chart so you can see 7 day, 30 day, 90 day, 1 year or all time at a glance. * Share your weight chart with everyone who's supporting you on your journey with a new Export button. * Share to email, text, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram... up to you. * A whole new section, "Reports," where you can see monthly summaries with their own charts. * DELUXE ONLY: Weekly and Yearly charts as well. * It's now much clearer in the logbook when you achieved certain milestones. * On the chart, you can now control how many days ago your current weight is compared to (the green section on the chart). * Controls are no longer animated on launch, but you can turn that back on (or turn off animations completely) with new settings. * Better accessibility support.

Lots of love for users that have upgraded to the Deluxe Edition in this release! And if you're using the free edition, there are some goodies for you, too!

Deluxe Edition users only- Sync with Apple's Health app: Have a lot of weights you want to import into Happy Scale? Or perhaps you have a wireless scale that automatically sends your weights to your iPhone? Now these weights can be automatically imported into Happy Scale!

Additionally, you can now export and backup all weights you recorded in Happy Scale to the Health app.

For all users: Predictions: Take control over what you want to see to motivate you on your journey!

Not only can you now get more information about when you'll hit your next milestone and when you'll hit your final finish line, you can also turn these off if you'd like. Also, you can now get insights into what you'll weigh in 7 days and 30 days.

You can easily swap between seeing predictions based on your current weight-loss rate, your overall rate, or a rate that you enter into Happy Scale as your commitment. Get a clear picture of what your future holds!

Deluxe Edition users: Want to know where your weight might be by next Wednesday? The first of next month? A special event, like a wedding or class reunion? When you'll reach some significant weight? All of these new predictions are available for users who bought the upgrade.

For everybody: The graph has been improved so it's easier to see weigh-ins that overlap the trend bar on the weight graph.

3.4.1

Apr 27, 2015

New in 3.4.1:

Hey hey, check out my fancy new look! Happy Scale got a brand new modern-looking icon courtesy of some of the world's finest icon designers.

New in 3.4:

◉ Modes for weight maintenance and weight gainersIf you're now in maintenance mode, you can hide the progress section. Also, if you are trying to gain weight, you can now set that up, too.◉ Weight units (including stones)Be explicit about what weight units you're using. UK users, this means you can now use stones.◉ Ignore everything before start dateSometimes you need a fresh start. You can now change your start date and hide all entries before your start date. Those old entries will be available, they'll just be hidden until you turn off "fresh start" mode.◉ Set a goal weight with a decimal componentWant to set a specific goal weight (like "170.43" so you can hit a specific BMI)? Now you can.◉ Deluxe Only- Export weight entries to email and CSV fileYou can now email yourself your full list of weight entries, and you can import a CSV file into an Excel spreadsheet.◉ Minor improvements and bug fixes

Thanks for all the suggestions. Please keep them coming at support@happyscale.com. Your suggestions help me prioritize which areas to improve next.

I've had several requests for HealthKit integration. Rest assured that it's a high-priority item on my list. The changes in this release were necessary precursors to adding HealthKit support.

Thank you to everyone who's reviewed the app. I love to read your success stories! Reviews get reset every time I release an update, so if you are enjoying the app and want to help support it, please leave a rating and review.

◉ Fix for Dropbox sync on iOS 8◉ Various small improvements and fixes

NOTICE: If you use sync and upgrade to this version, you must also upgrade all other devices that will sync with this one.

3.0

Jun 12, 2014

◉ Sync between your iPhone and iPad!

The most requested feature by far is now available... you can use iCloud or Dropbox to synchronize your iPhone and iPad versions of Happy Scale. Record your weight on your iPhone, then open your iPad to find the data is transferred automatically so you can see your graph of your awesome progress on a big screen!

You can also use the sync feature to backup all your profile data to the cloud. That cloud backup can later be easily pulled down to a new iPhone or iPad.

This feature will require an in-app purchase upgrade to the Deluxe Edition. You only need to buy the upgrade once, and then you can "restore previous purchases" on other devices. If that isn't working for you, contact me and I'll help you figure out why.

Happy Scale makes me happy!

Jul 1, 2017

I have never been one to weigh myself more than once a week. Usually less than that(I guess that's how the weight creeped on me to begin with). It's really interesting to see how much your weight fluctuates. The number on the scale is almost psychological. If my weight goes up a pound in a day when I know I didn't eat nearly enough for that to make sense, I will still get discouraged, but then I look at my moving average and it has gone down even though my weight on the scale went up.

I noticed this is how my weight fluctuates throughout the month. I get to a new low weight and then it increases 1-3 pounds until maybe a week later it drops off and I reach a new low weight. I have lost 6.5 pounds this month! It's a little bit, but it's more than I've been able to do before this app. I also like the milestones. It's better than going "Ah, I need to lose 30 pounds." I have it broken up into 10 milestones. I have passed two and have eight more to go! A very simple interface but highly effective! I recommend this app to anyone!

This weight tracking app has been awesome. At first, I didnt really get what the numbers were all tracking because I hadnt put in enough data. After a few weeks, it started to become clear and it is very accurate and helpful. It also really showed me how close I am to my next weight loss landmark which has made it seem more doable to pass up going on some eating splurge in order to reach it.

I definitely find it rewarding to enter in my weight from my scale now. And even when I have water retention or some other fluctuation, the app helps me to take it in stride instead of feeling like I must be doing something wrong and getting flustered. Sure enough, a few days later, my weight will drop down again just like the app's trends had suggested, so it really helps the scale to be less of a roller coaster. This app is wonderful. Seriously has helped motivate me to lose weight and not become discouraged.

With weight loss, in particular, if you can't see the overall trend of your weight, it is easy to get psyched out and give up. The way this app is configured, it helps to see the bigger picture in a way that most people trying to lose weight cannot quite manage to see. This is a truly beautiful creation.

UPDATEThey've added even more customizations and I've found even more ways to use the features on this app. Seriously, this app is probably the best designed, most functional app I have downloaded.

I love this app! I was looking for something to track just my weight (not diet/calories/exercise, etc.) because with apps like that I start obsessing about every single bite I eat, wasting time and mental energy figuring out how many calories I can have. This app is PERFECT because it has a ton of features for tracking weight without all the extra stuff I didn’t need or want. I love that it can break up my big goal into smaller milestones, which helps me track small accomplishments along the way so I don’t get discouraged. I also LOVE that it graphs changes in weight as “trends” rather than individual points, which helps account for normal weight fluctuations while still showing it as overall progress rather than a setback. It’s important to me to stay positive along the way to my goal so I don’t start feeling defeated or overwhelmed. This app is helping me to make healthy changes without obsessing over calories.
